About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most pharmacies are quiet and empty, an old man began arriving regularly at Nebraska Medicine Pharmacy. He’d ask for the same obscure medication every morning, but no one could ever explain why he needed it. One day, a delivery driver noticed that the old man was mixing his mysterious pills with candy. When asked why, he smiled and said, 'For good luck!' Turns out, he was just a friendly neighborhood grandpa who loved sweets more than medicine.
2. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached the pharmacy's loading dock, he heard a faint voice over the intercom: 'Please bring that package to room 404... but only if you see a unicorn on your way.' Curious, our delivery guy glanced around and spotted a tiny white unicorn grazing among the boxes. He smiled, picked up the package, and walked towards Room 404. Inside, an elderly pharmacist chuckled: ‘A regular sees a unicorn every week,’ he said. ‘Just another day at Nebraska Medicine.’
3. In the early morning, before the sun rose over Lincoln, Nebraska, a little girl walked into the pharmacy with her grandmother. As she peered around the counter, her eyes widened at something unusual on the shelf. On the shelf was an old bottle of cough syrup labeled ‘For Horses Only.’ The little girl whispered to her grandmother, ‘Grandma, why do horses get special medicine?’ Her grandmother smiled and replied, ‘Honey, it’s because they’re bigger than us!’ They both burst out laughing, making the pharmacist look up from his work with a smile.
4. In the dead of winter, when snow blanketed everything in sight, a curious shadow appeared outside the pharmacy’s large windows every night. One night, a delivery driver noticed the silhouette and waved back with his flashlight. The shadow grinned and motioned for him to come closer. Turns out it was just an enthusiastic pigeon, trying to get some attention. Since then, Nebraska Medicine Pharmacy has become known for its feathered night watchman.
